During my sabbatical at Harvard, I had the chance to visit MIT frequently to learn about their work in artificial intelligence and to see first-hand how they adapt new technologies to undergraduate education. It has been great to get to know the MIT Open Learning Group and to have some great talks with Sheryl Barnes and others at MIT. Toward the end of the year, MIT invited me to give an X talk on April 24 entitled “Reimagining Higher Education: Lessons from Around the World.” That talk is based on the book The New Global Universities, which I wrote with Noah Pickus. The talk featured a nice group of in-person attendees and is available on recording from the MIT Open Learning YouTube channel.

The video is also imbedded below. I hope you enjoy it!
